It's starting to feel like the end of the party here, with a lot of sensible people looking at their watches and making pointed remarks about how they'd better be off. I've been having a look at alternatives and more and more people seem to be going blue. Even @Number10cat !

I'm an ICU doctor and am fully vaccinated and would encourage all to do the same. I also don't run a "breathlessness clinic" at a minimum of £500 a pop, so don't have any untoward interest in there being a load more breathless people...

On call from home overnight and the SR phoned with a query on a puzzling blood gas. As he described the situation a noise came from my wife under the covers: "Pyroglutamic acidosis" Gentle snoring then recommenced. Thus is the power of a GP in a remote consultation...

Infection control has been subject to political fiddling throughout the pandemic - I guess there's some solace in the fact there's it's no longer hidden: open hostility to efforts to protect the most vulnerable, in the name of efficiency.

Hospital-Acquired COVID-19 - 6th Oct update I have to admit to being surprised at how high the numbers are getting. In the last 28 days, out of 21,809 people admitted to hospital with Covid in England, 7,908 probably or definitely caught it there (36.3%) 1/

So my son's school bubble went down and I've had to try to spend the day home schooling whilst desperately trying to catch up on admin and data work... Can anyone help with answers to this?
